Allison Cole: August 2018

“Lost Together”

Allison Cole brings us a stunning series of acrylic paintings, ranging in size from 8″x8″ to 48″x36″, inspired by her young son who is autistic.

“When I started these paintings, we were like, ‘How do we reach him.’ Now it’s getting there. So it’s hopeful. I hope these paintings feel hopeful or positive,” Allison says. “We really want him to be able to communicate, whether it’s with words or pictures or signing, to lessen his frustrations.”

Join us for a reception with the artist on Friday, August 10, 2018 from 6-9pm.
